Scientific paper

Spectropolarimetric measurements of NGC 1068 between 8 and 13 microns are presented which show that the polarized flux at these wavelengths is intrinsic to the emission mechanism and is not due to absorption by aligned grains. Data on the flux, polarization, position angle, and polarized intensity are presented and their implications for various published models are discussed.
